A Fatal Injury.

News comes to Lancaster, as we go to
press, OF an injury that will doubtless
prove fatal to Leonard Griswold. son
of Solomon Griswold, proprietor of the
Rock mill, northwest of Lancaster.
He was at work repairing the hume

him, crushing him almost beyond re-
cognition. He was carried to the house
and medical aid summoned, which from
the accounts of the messenger, will be
mnayailmg. The young man was about
% years old.

DULUTH, May 5.-Northwestern and
Duluth Smelling company to-day COM
pleted arrangements with the west Du-
luth Land company by which the lat
ter deeds to the former 1877 acres of
land at Grassy Point, upoD which they
will at once proceed to erect large cop.
per smelling works. The ore to sup
ply the works comes from the Anaconda
mine IN montana. The value of the
plantt to begin with is 81, 100000. and
the value of the land given to them is
over $4,000. The company will use
the electric light, employ 1900 men,
and operations in the construction
will commence in two weeks, as soon as
the copper smelters are built. 1t is
the intention to 60 on at once and CON-
mence the erection of silver and iron
furnaces. 1t is stated that the Inter
state law is responsible for this present
state of affairs, as previous to its en-
actment the Union Pacific would not
give q favorable rate of freightsge.
The land given comprises valuable
water frontage which, by q system of
dockage, can be increased to over 200
acres, and is admirably fitted for the
location of the plant. The company
pledge themselves to rush work and to
be capable by Oct. of turning out p
tons daily ofrefined copper. Chicago,
Omaha, Milwaukee and other promin-
ent points have been trying to get the
location, but the donation of land and
advantage of position offered here car.
ried the day, The works will be The
largest in the world when completed
